SOME ITEMS FROM THE EVERYTHING CROTON MAILBOX

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

SOME ITEMS FROM THE EVERYTHING CROTON MAILBOX--CLICK ON THE PHOTOS AND LINKS:  

FIRSTUP--BY SPECIAL REQUEST---1920 with THE CROTONIAN BLUE-BIRDS.  We loved everything about this photo of the “Crotonian Blue-birds” from 1920: the name of the band, the playful expression of some, the deadly-seriousness of others! Standing left to right: Joseph Germinero, Raymond Kimball, Callahan Geo Ferris, Frank Hutchinson, Thomas Stanton, Harvey Woods, John Donohue, Bob Gildersleeve, Bert Leicht, John Murnin, Ed Garrison, Louis Giglio, Lonard Kimball & Joseph Zerello. Drummers: Joseph Radowsky, Elburn Smith, Martin Gregory, Herbert Chase, William McCarthy and Robert Keate, instructor. Click on the photo. 

Speaking of bands, readers have fond memories of Croton Harmon H.S. teacher Moses Godfrey
